Guest Col city fan Posted 23 May 2013 Posted 23 May 2013 Having had a rethink about next season, I took my disabled mum down to the KP to renew our season tickets, last Tuesday. We were told that season tickets for disabled people (and their carers) aren't being renewed currently, although you can put them 'on hold' until they are ready. We were also told that there is a meeting at the KP, for disabled supporters next Friday (I think the start time was either 6.30 or 7). The meeting is to discuss matters regarding disabled supporters, what the club is doing for them, how it can be improved etc.. Just thought I'd share this anyway..
orangecity23 Posted 23 May 2013 Posted 23 May 2013 I renewed my ST with my disabled friend on the 11th, and there wasn't any problem then - well, the club certainly took our money! Must be a more recent thing, is this affecting all disabled supporters, or just people with mobility problems? As usual, the club has communicated sod all about it. Hope you manage to sort it out soon, wouldn't want to miss out on the early bird price!

Cheers mate.I'm not sure why ours are 'delayed then'? We'll ask about it Friday.
Sag1 Posted 23 May 2013 Posted 23 May 2013 I rang to renew mine yesterday and there was no issue. I was told that 2012/13 Disabled STH seats will be reserved until July 1st as it takes a bit longer to get on the DSA list and so on.
Sag1 Posted 23 May 2013 Posted 23 May 2013 How much does a disabled season ticket cost? Same as regular seats but a carer can come for no charge
FrankieADZ Posted 23 May 2013 Posted 23 May 2013 Cheers mate. I'm not sure why ours are 'delayed then'? We'll ask about it Friday. i think the delay could be something to do with moving seats our something. im not 100% sure.
neiltheblue Posted 23 May 2013 Posted 23 May 2013 i think the delay could be something to do with moving seats our something. im not 100% sure. We've renewed and moved seats but you do have to be members of the dsa to qualify for free carer ticket next season.
Trav Le Bleu Posted 23 May 2013 Posted 23 May 2013 How much does a disabled season ticket cost? Can I hear an axe being sharpened?
Guest MattP Posted 23 May 2013 Posted 23 May 2013 Can I hear an axe being sharpened? Come on even I wouldn't go that far.

I guess they'll be bring this DSA thing at the start of the 2014 season. Well hope so.
Mack Posted 24 May 2013 Posted 24 May 2013 I believe they are going to move all disabled supporters and carers into one area of the stadium. That's what I heard.
FrankieADZ Posted 24 May 2013 Posted 24 May 2013 I believe they are going to move all disabled supporters and carers into one area of the stadium. That's what I heard. they did that a few season ago...moving ppl into the West Stand i think...now i think there moving again.
Babylon Posted 24 May 2013 Posted 24 May 2013 I believe they are going to move all disabled supporters and carers into one area of the stadium. That's what I heard. I thought they already had... walked passed the entrance to L1 and thought so anyway. They saw Col coming... "bloody hell it's that bloke who never stops going on about DM's, we've had complaints about him. Tell him he can't renew, hopefully he'll go away".
